Heading down to TX. Staying in Austin to start, but driving to Dallas. And likely San Antone and Houston. Looking for a cool store that has a lot of action figures, esp 80s'-90's figs. Looking for good comic stores too. Any recommendations are welcome.

When you get to Dallas, look up these guys: http://www.dallasvintagetoys.com/

They're located in an office building, so you'll feel like you're about to have a clandestine government encounter, but once you get there, you'll have a great time. TONS of stuff to sort through, and some good deals to be had. Plan on spending an hour or two.

Also, Zeus is my LCS of choice: http://www.zeuscomics.com/ Though they just moved, so inventory is a bit low. If you do go, tell 'em I sent you.

Madness comics has the best selection of games and trade paperbacks around: http://www.zeuscomics.com/ But you won't find any deals.

And avoid Lone Star Comics at all costs, unless you enjoy being a victim of highway robbery.

Austin Books is the best comic store in Texas. Diversity of product is excellent.

Firstly, I would like to thank the members for posting the details. I was in search of the best toys it would be great if walking pet balloons are available anywhere which are my son's favourite. Hope they might be available somewhere here. Please produce some attachment links regarding this. Thanks once again.
